That explains why you could get out more than the daily Intercam allowance. You would have paid an ATM fee whereas I did not because I used an Intercam card. Come May I will have lived here for 21 years. During that time I have used countless ATM machines and I have never once paid a fee. For the first years, I was using Banamex. Then, I switched to Intercam. I still have a CitiBanamex card so I can use either bank's ATM with no fees.
artsnob, I just thought of something. Before I go into Intercam and ask if the max rate has been raised from $10,000 to $16,000 per day with an INTERCAM CARD. When you were able to withdraw 2 x $8000 what card were you using?
That is a new machine. I got $5,000 pesos twice from it. That has been the maximum we could withdraw in 24 hours. I will have to go back and see if I can ask for $8000. I may see what happens in the bank itself when I try to withdraw $8000...assuming of course it is working.
How many of you old timers can remember when we wanted to refill our gas tanks we had to drive out almost to San Nicholas? Eventually, we turned left onto a dirt road and drove some distance back. When you got to the place you carried your tank onto a field to where the tanks were filled. After filling they are very heavy and I remember it was not easy carrying it back to the car. I could not do that now. I remember going out there twice before the Z-Gas place on Revolucion opened.
There is a place just outside of Chapala but I am not sure I can explain where it is. If you know where the cemetery is in Chapla let's start there. Go down the road that goes past the cemetery to the lake. Turn left on the lake highway. It is a little distance from where you turn on the left side. .. Just past restaurant, etc. at that intersection.
